(Y/N) didn't mean to fall in love with him- she was only doing her job.

* Word Count: 4k
* It's about time I start sharing my man with the readers (Sorry I'm such a simp for Theseus-)
* Preface: Theseus and Leta are not engaged in this universe.
* Angst, but what's new?
* Dialogue heavy
* Character death :)
* (Okay, I REALLY LOVE WRITING ANGSTY THESEUS/VICTORIA CONTENT, HUH. WHETHER IT BE PLATONIC OR ROMANTIC-)
* I usually write Theseus and Victoria with perfect personalities... I hope this fic will change that and I can start writing more of their ugly sides.

"You're so pretty, why don't you have a boyfriend?"

Was the question that (Y/N) received on a near day to day basis. Some from colleagues, some from distant relatives, and some from random people who tried to ask her out on a date.

To answer that question would take a whole other story, but to keep it short: She was hurt by first love. (Y/N) loved him with all her heart and he repaid her by falling in love and running away with another woman.

(Y/N) was a hopeless romantic and she was aware of that. All the romance novels that the muggles always talked about- she read them. All the romance films- she watched them. When her fellow Aurors were in relationships, she felt joy and happiness swell in her heart.

Though she desperately wanted a boyfriend, she was afraid. Afraid that one day, he'd leave her. So she kept her heart locked away. Besides, there was no time for romance- not in the midst of a war. Rumors of Grindelwald gathering more members for his "organization" spread through the Auror department like wildfire.

Under the temporary direction of Head Auror Victoria Howard, missions were successful. Despite feeling anxious, she led her fellow Aurors with confidence and determination. Yes, there were casualties, but that was the price of any mission.

Victoria always had a weird feeling about (Y/N). (Y/N) was sweet, nurturing, and quite intelligent. She was a great Auror, but something didn't sit right with her. These feelings amplified when War Hero, Theseus Scamander, came into the picture.

Theseus walked into the room full of Aurors behind Victoria and Travers. "As you all know, the Head Auror Howard will be stepping down and Theseus Scamander will be taking her place."

Declarations of distress echoed throughout the room. "But sir, Miss Howard was leading us just fine!" An Auror argued.

Before Travers could stupidly respond, Victoria took a step forward. "I know some of you may not agree with the changes, but Mister Scamander is a great leader. I think he'll bring us farther than I ever could."

Theseus nodded and patted Victoria's shoulder. "One of the reasons why I'm a great leader is because of her. She's always pushing me to be the best. So I hope I can lead you all to victory to the best of my abilities."

After the formalities, Victoria had led Theseus around the room to get to know his fellow partners. He got along with most of them. The ones he didn't get along with were the ones still slightly upset about the change, but he paid no mind to it. Then they got to (Y/N).
